आत्मैवेदं जगत्सर्वं कः किं भावयतु क्व वा ।
भावना नाम नास्त्वेव तदेतत्सम्यगीक्षणम् ॥ ३० ॥

ātmaivedaṃ jagatsarvaṃ kaḥ kiṃ bhāvayatu kva vā |
bhāvanā nāma nāstveva tadetatsamyagīkṣaṇam || 30 ||

The whole world is full with the spirit of God, whatever otherwise one may think of it at any time; there can be no other thought of it except that it is a nihility, and this forms our perfect knowledge of it.
